One day trail in Ancient Ladakh
In the pages of history, the ancient capital of Leh bookmarks one of the greatest cross-cultural crusades of its time! A bustling trade post on the Silk Route, it gave birth to a trans-Himalayan pedigree, nourished by the valleys of Baltistan and Afghanistan, while dynastic rule trickled in from the highest abyss of the Tibetan Plateau and down the realms of the Mongolian Empire…
We have mapped out a trajectory of hidden trails shadowing the glory of the Silk Road Era and all that it left behind… Seek out timeless stories and let them illustrate history that once existed on a grand scale!
Central Asian Museum
The quiet courtyard beckons history and the fortified structure stores relics from the ever-lasting escapade of traditions that have transpired here over time… Bringing to life the Tibetan, Kashmiri, Baltistani and Ladhaki origins of the land.
La Las Café
An antiquated, mud-brick café, with a history rooted in romanticism! Andre Alexander, a revered historian and traveller built the innate structure for his Tibetan wife, La La and it stands true to the tale of their love, long after they’ve been gone.
Munshi House:
Explore the endless, prehistoric perspectives that lie within the original residence of the King’s tax collector! Proudly known as the Munshi House, its primeval kitchen still stores the original earthen pots and the interior is a profound reflection of Ladakhsvernacular architecture.
Leh Palace
An audacious, architectural figure to which we all look up, the masonry walls of LehPalace have watched over Old Town like a protective parent since the 16th century. Erected without machines or modern engineering, they have forbidden time from diminishing their age-old glory, keeping their perpendicular perfection intact to this very day.
Tsemo Namgyal
The walls of Tsemo, radiate a forgotten light. Fortified in celebration of an ancient victory, yet their presence today is quiet and elusive, that of a humble bystander who retains a distant dignity while forfeiting all the glory.
And Lastly , Food
Experience Authentic Local food at Alchi Kitchen or Central Asain Museum
